"textContent": "When a grommet provided with a wire insertion tubular portion is mounted in a through-hole of a vehicle body panel by engaging a vehicle body engagement recess on an outer periphery of the grommet with a peripheral edge of the through-hole, the present invention prevents the wire insertion tubular portion from being caught by the peripheral edge of the through-hole, bending toward the vehicle body engagement recess side, and being wedged in between the peripheral edge of the through-hole and the vehicle body engagement recess, and thus enables the grommet to be securely mounted in the through-hole. The grommet includes a central tubular portion for wire harness insertion provided along a central axis line, a large diameter tubular portion continuing to an outer peripheral surface of the central tubular portion via an annular connecting portion and surrounding the central tubular portion so as to have a space therebetween, an annular vehicle body engagement recess provided on an outer peripheral surface of the large diameter tubular portion, and a wire insertion tubular portion projecting from a peripheral edge of an opening in the annular connecting portion in a position eccentric around the central tubular portion, at least a cable or a hose being inserted through the wire insertion tubular portion. A rib is provided between an outer peripheral surface on a central axis line side of the wire insertion tubular portion and a peripheral wall of the central tubular portion in order to reinforce a base on the central axis line side of the wire insertion tubular portion.",
